"The Earth will move through debris left behind by comet 109P/Swift-Tuttle, creating a beautiful display of shooting stars in the sky," she says."Viewers should head out after dark and look towards the constellation Perseus in the northeast. It's just below the 'W'-shaped constellation of Cassiopeia the queen."
During its peak, she says you can expect to see at least one meteor per minute—thanks mainly to ideal conditions."The moon will be in the waning crescent phase, so the sky will be nice and dark for meteor shower viewers this year! And even if the skies are cloudy that day, you can go out a few days before or after the peak and still get a great show," she says.Many of our planetary neighbors can be easy to spot without a single piece of equipment.
"Jupiter is the largest planet in our solar system and is also one of the brightest objects in the night sky," says Klein."Look for a bright, white, star-like object in the eastern sky after sunset." If you do happen to have a pair of 10x binoculars on hand, Klein adds that you might be able to use them to also pick up the gas giant's four largest moons.
